leetsec··on My .in domain has been transferred to another registrant without notification
The OP here is also the author of MathB.in, a popular math pastebin. He has decided to shut down MathB.in now as a result of this incident. Quoting from http://mathb.in/6 below:

> I have considered shutting down this website several times in the past. But when another of my domain, susam.in, where I used to host my personal blog (archive) was seized and transferred to a law enforcement organization without any notification or authorization, it was the last straw. I do not wish to spend my weekends worrying about spam and unlawful content. I do not wish to maintain constant vigilance on my online servers to maintain ownership. It consumes time, more time than I can afford.

This is sad for WWW. We need more independently run websites, not less. The web of early 2000 is rapidly disappearing.
